Diffraction and the extent of the spreading (diffraction) depends to how the width of the gap is compared to the wavelength of the waves.

natali 33 [55]

Answer:

(a) Elongation of the rod==5.61×10⁻⁹m

(b) Change in diameter=1.640×10⁻⁸m

Explanation:

Given data

Diameter d=78 in=1.9812 m

Cross Area is:

A=(\pi /4)d^{2} \\A=(\pi /4)(1.9812m)^{2}\\A=3.08m^{2}

Applied Load P=17 KN=17×10³N

E=29 × 106 psi=1.99947961×10¹¹Pa

Stress and Strain in x direction

Stress in x direction

σ=P/A

=\frac{17*10^{3}N }{3.08m^{2} }\\ =5517.25Pa

σ=5517.25 Pa

Strain in x direction

ε=σ/E

=\frac{5517.25}{1.99947961*10^{11} } \\=2.76*10^{-8}

ε=2.76×10⁻⁸

Part (a)

Elongation of the rod=Lε

=(0.2032)(2.76×10⁻⁸)

Elongation of the rod==5.61×10⁻⁹m

Part(b) Change in diameter

Strain in y direction

ε₁= -vε

ε₁= -(0.30)(2.76×10⁻⁸)

ε₁=-8.28×10⁻⁹

Change in diameter=d×ε₁

Change in diameter=(1.9812m)×(-8.28×10⁻⁹)

Change in diameter=1.640×10⁻⁸m

Answer:

The Forces of Flight

At any given time, there are four forces acting upon an aircraft.  

These forces are lift, weight (or gravity), drag and thrust. Lift is  

the key aerodynamic force that keeps objects in the air. It is the  

force that opposes weight; thus, lift helps to keep an aircraft in  

the air. Weight is the force that works vertically by pulling all  

objects, including aircraft, toward the center of the Earth. In order  

to fly an aircraft, something (lift) needs to press it in the opposite  

direction of gravity. The weight of an object controls how strong  

the pressure (lift) will need to be. Lift is that pressure. Drag is a  

mechanical force generated by the interaction and contract of a  

solid body, such as an airplane, with a fluid (liquid or gas). Finally,  

the thrust is the force that is generated by the engines of an  

aircraft in order for the aircraft to move forward.

A stone is dropped into a river from a bridge 41.7 m above the water. Another stone is thrown vertically down 1.80 s after the f
hram777 [196]

Answer:

31.75 m/s

Explanation:

h = 41.7 m

Let the initial velocity of the second stone is u

Let the time taken to reach to the bottom by the first stone is t then the time taken by the second stone to reach the ground is t - 1.8.

For first stone:

Use second equation of motion

h=ut+\frac{1}{2}gt^2

Here, u = 0, g = 9.8 m/s^2 and t be the time and h = 41.7

So, 41.7= 0 + 0.5 x 9.8 x t^2

41.7 = 4.9 t^2

t = 2.92 s ..... (1)

For second stone:

Use second equation of motion

h=ut+\frac{1}{2}gt^2

Here, g = 9.8 m/s^2 and time taken is t - 1.8 = 2.92 - 1.8 = 1.12 s, h = 41.7 m and u be the initial velocity

h=u\left ( t-1.8 \right )+4.9\left ( t-1.8 \right )^2    .... (2)

By equation the equation (1) and (2), we get

41.7=1.12 u +4.9 \times 1.12^{2}

u = 31.75 m/s

Zielflug [23.3K]
Work done by the force = Force x displacement. Power = work done/time = F.s/t = F.u.t/t = F.u = 95 x 20 = 1900J.                                                                                                                                                                                               {S=ut because acceleration is zero since car is moving at constant velocity}.
